I’ve always loved penguins. There is just something neat about a bird that can’t fly, but loves to swim underwater. Can live in freezing temperatures and depend on other penguins for warmth.
I love how the black and white is to represent the symbolism of Taoism. Peng Shui is the perfect name too. Artwork by English artist Peter Cross.
What better way to get into the Christmas spirit then putting up decorations? I just saw these cute Christmas critter ornaments at Pottery Barn. I especially like the baby penguin. But $26 for a set of 4 is quite pricey!
Pinecone Critters. Along with the pine cone body, it’s very creative! Photo from Pottery Barn.
Smith & Hawkin, the garden shop I’ve enjoyed visiting, always had nice ornaments. But sadly they are out of business (since last July 2009). I found this photo from the Daily Green. I remember seeing them last winter but didn’t buy any. They are so cute and colorful too! I found some on Ebay and thinking of bidding for them (starting bid is $3 for all 6).
